Description: Group Captain Ben Sharp will discuss how the Ministry of Defence's approach to space as an operational, warfighting domain has advanced over the last 5 years - alongside our society's dependence on space technology, which continues to increase alongside the threats to space systems from natural phenomena, adversary action and the congestion of Earth's orbits. He will provide an overview of the MOD's Space- Based Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance programme and reflect on his work as its programme director. Ben has been a RAF officer since 2002 and has served around the world, leading teams to provide communication services that have enabled British military operations. More recently, he has been overseeing the development, delivery and operation of space systems for the Ministry of Defence, becoming one of the first people to join UK Space Command when it formed in 2021.
